How to watch Commanders vs Eagles in Canada
CTV carries the Sunday afternoon slate, and this game is part of it. That coverage is regional, however, so which fixture your local CTV shows depends on where in the country you are. Where it is the regional pick, CTV is conventional over-the-air television, so an antenna or the most basic cable tier is enough and there is nothing to pay.
NFL Game Pass on DAZN carries every game of the season, live or on demand, wherever you are in Canada. There are no Canadian blackouts, so it is the reliable option if this fixture is not your region’s CTV game, or if you want to follow more than one at once. Game Pass sits inside a standard DAZN subscription rather than costing extra. Squawka may earn a commission if you subscribe through that link.
